how did you hear about me

(required)

Hello, I'm Ashley. This is my story and these are my photographs. I am a girl who loves life and feel very blessed to share it with those around me.

I was born and raised in a home full of love and life and spent my childhood swimming in our lake and exploring the woods. In high school I fell in love and a few years later married my husband Brian.

I began taking photographs when we traveled to northern Michigan – of trees and rocks. And then began taking other people’s pictures. I have been photographing weddings and people since two thousand and nine. I am a photographer because it bring me joy.

I feel honored to step into a couple wedding day and share their story through my photographs. I love moments that inspire the heart and I like to take pictures that are full of life and emotion.

My life outside photography? Brian and I live in a little house that we have slowly turned into our own. We share our life with two dogs, a few kitty cats, two goats, and a backyard full of chickens and ducks. We have a vegetable garden. And fruit beds. I am a lover of nature. And feel life is best lived outside. I can be found scouring antique markets and estate sales for vintage pieces. Or curling up on our porch swing with a book and glass of tea. I believe that life is beautiful. Together Brian and I are happy. Just two people in love.

alicia and aj – wedding lifestyle photographer

Alicia and AJ were married on a beautiful January day. Fresh snow had fallen a few days before and the overcast skies proved to have a magical glow. When I arrived at the church I instantly felt the buzz of excitement in the girls room. They were talking about how stunning Alicia’s dress was. She wore it perfectly. The guys played it cool and AJ had such a calm about him.

The ceremony was filled with love. The pews filled with family and friends. Their vows filled with sincerity. And then they were pronounced husband and wife. Before the reception, the whole bridal party took some time to spend together cruising around Muskegon. Alicia and AJ’s wedding party can be described in one word. Fun. And it carried right into the reception with a full dance floor, lots of hugs and plenty of smiles.
